The Major League Baseball Players Association agreed to provide added financial support to non-roster players who were on Spring Training rosters as of March 13 and have at least one day of Major League service, per multiple reports. These players had been left out of the agreement that will pay $170 million in salary to major leaguers until the end of May.
The amount of each payout will be dependent on the relevant player’s service time, starting at $5,000 (0-1 years of service), and incrementally building up to $50,000 (6+ years of service).
